How to achieve 40x luminosity

5

  • Nano beam:
  • Small current increase (2-3x)
  • Smaller βy* (20x) via

superconducting focus magnets

  • Challenge of beam

backgrounds

Belle II: CDC

  • Belle II CDC will be larger

than Belle CDC with smaller cells

  • Improved p and dE/dx

resolution

  • Stringing completed in

January 2014 with 51456 wires

  • Commissioning with

cosmic rays

Belle II: TOP

  • The imaging Time of Propagation sub-

detector (TOP or iTOP) will be used for particle identification in the barrel region

  • f Belle II
  • Each TOP module consists of two

quartz bars, one mirror, one prism, and an array of photo-detectors to collect Cerenkov photons from charged tracks

  • To distinguish between kaons and

pions, the photo-detectors should have excellent position and timing resolution

  • This is achieved by using MCP-PMTs

and new waveform sampling electronics

Belle II: TOP

  • TOP modules have been tested at beam test at SPring-8 LEPS in 2013, and

good agreement between data and MC simulation has been obtained, with timing requirement ~O(100ps)

  • 9 out of 16 modules have been assembled (the optical and mechanical

parts). The assembly of the 10th module is on going in KEK

  • Commissioning with cosmic rays is under way

Belle II: ARICH

  • Aerogel Ring Imaging

Cerenkov (ARICH) detector will be used for particle identification in the forward end cap

  • 420 Hybrid Avalanche

Photo Detectors (HAPD), each with 144 channels

  • Two layers of aerogel lead

to better photon yield, while not affecting resolution

Belle II: ECL

  • Upgrades for high

backgrounds:

  • Barrel: CsI(Tl) crystals

reused, new electronics for waveform sampling

  • Endcaps: old crystals

refurbished, bias filter is modified

  • Cosmic ray test is on going

Belle II: KLM

  • Endcaps and parts of the barrel

KLM RPCs of Belle will be replaced with scintillators due to increased backgrounds expected in Belle II

  • Barrel KLM was the first sub-

detector to be installed in Belle II

Physics Opportunities

  • Potential signals for new physics:
  • Flavor changing neutral

currents

  • Probing charged Higgs
  • New sources of CPV
  • Lepton Flavour Violation

decays

  • Dark sectors
  • Belle II physics programme will

be complementary with LHCb.

  • Dark matter suggests dark

sector.

  • Dark photon: A’, to be in

MeV ~ GeV mass.

  • Probing method:
  • Leptonicaly decaying

dark photons through mixing.

  • Sub-GeV dark matter in

invisible decays.

Summary

  • B-factories had some rich and successful physics

results and many hints of new physics.

  • Belle will be upgraded to Belle II to further explore

these opportunities.

  • Belle II will start operation in 2016 and start taking

physics data in 2018.

  • The target integrated luminosity for physics data is 50

ab-1, which is much larger than the current data set.
